Just gotta ask if Aero Rims are really worth it, yes i agree they look very nice and yes i could like some (cos they look very nice) but are they worth it for a very average rider and Sportive entrant.

Oh and are they any stronger, less lible to buckle, etc?

Just asking as i need a new rear hub and well you know how it goes once you get started...
This is why!

    Do you spend a lot of time above 20mph? If not deep section rims probably aren't worth it.
    I like bikes...

    They'll play up in cross winds and unless you're spending a decent amount of cash will be heavier than a normal section rim.

    Depends on how deep. If you keep breaking box section rims, you might appreciate a deeper rim (they tend to be stronger and stiffer). Otherwise, probably not.
